New Point of Views
I have been wanting to shoot videos like this for so long. The entire process of POV shooting photos is so awesome. Getting to watch and edit everything after is so much fun. It is so simple but so satisfying.
It’s not easy to get used to having this on my head. I have only used it on my hard hat once the first day I got it, but using it on my hat or the headband is such a weird feeling.
I am really excited to use this when shooting cars, but if I meet the owner which has happened multiple times now I don’t want to stand there with this on my head looking even more awkward. We will get there though.
Also something you will see in this POV that I will be writing my next Blog about is the PolarPro Every Day filter, I have very mixed feelings on this and thought it was something I should note for a future post.
Anyways the POV videos are something I seriously can’t wait to shoot more of. My family and I have a trip to Texas coming up and I will be using this GoPro so much for it.
Oh, it is the GoPro Hero 11 Black by the way, I never mentioned that.
I am still trying to work out all the kinks and everything with it to make the quality the best that I can. I have been going through a lot of different settings with it and once I feel I have them locked in I will make a blog about what exactly I use. One thing I can say is I don’t use the whole 24fps because it’s more eye like with motion blur. I used 60fps in the video header and I enjoy the way that looks. I have been experiencing lag with anything under 60fps and I don’t think it is a hards look or bad at all.
I am excited for everything I am going to be able to create with this setup, and the longer I keep doing it the better it will get and the more I will learn. I am going to have fun with it all.

Vehicle 001
When I first seen this car I was just so amazed, such a beautiful car. I went to a dollar tree, bought a notepad, wrote a note, left it under the wiper (side note, approaching this car I realized it is passenger driven, this car is a fucking import) and waited.
Nothing…
A week of coming back to the same spot (a gym) and finally I got to see it in person again. The first time I seen it I only had a film camera with me and I still haven’t sent that one off yet. I didn’t think to take a photo with my phone. I never leave notes. I have cards but the QR code I used for convenience I didn’t know required a $300 yearly payout and I am fine without it.
I set out this day to photo someones car, edit the photos on the spot, print them, leave them. This is something as someone who is trying to be successful in photography with no social media I want to start doing.
Taking my wife to Dunkn right near the same gym and I see it, finally. After a week of trying to see this car again, here it is. I was so excited to get out and snap some photos, I did not care at all about looking weird or have any kind of anxiety from doing it I was so focused on these being perfect.
I get in the car get everything out, I take my time editing, get everything looking so amazing, go to print and… half of my power cable is at home 10 minutes away on the dresser.
Grab the coffee, hurry home, print them out on the way back my wife wrote a note for me to leave with them because she made fun of my writing on my last note and I kept thinking the person couldn’t read my writing and that is why I had not heard anything but we make it there and the owner is getting in to leave.
I could have flown out of the car to get to him before he left. Approaching this guy that at this point I have harassed and stalked to photo his car I was not sure what to even say and I can only remember some details as to what was said haha. I found out the year after talking to so many people about this amazing vehicle for a week without any photos or information all I had was the license plate and what it spelled, it was a Nissan Skyline, that was it.
1989 Nissan Skyline GTR, I didn’t even think to ask the motor. Hopefully I see this car again, the guy loved the photos. This is the first car I have photo’d and left prints, actually meeting and talking with the owner the first time I decided to do this and it being a car I have looked for, for a week is crazy!
Hopefully I don’t end up with a restraining order, and he has my phone number and website link so sir if you’re reading this I appreciate you talking with me and again your car is sick as fuck! Hahaha this was so much fun, and I can not wait to shoot and leave more and spread the website more and more with people.
